Answer: No, the normal curve cannot be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

The theorem of the Normal approximation states that if X is B(n,p) then for large n X is N(np, np(1-p)).

The accuracy of this approximation is good

i. for n > [10/p(1-p)]

ii. p is close to 1/2

Hence given p= 4% = 0.04,

q = 1 - 0.04 = 0.96

Let N = [10/p(1-p)]

We find N = 10/p(1-p) = 10/(0.04× 0.96)

N ~= 260

Since n < 260 and p < 0.5

The approximation is not a good one

Logarithm 2. The alkalinity of a fluid (pH) can be modeled in terms of its hydrogen ion concentration (H^+,measured in moles/lit
makkiz [27]

ok. We are given the following equation:

ph=-\log (H)

Where:

\begin{gathered} P=\text{ alkalinity} \\ H=\text{ hydrogen ion concentration} \end{gathered}

Since we are asked to determine "H" we will solve for "H" in the equation. To do that we will first multiply both sides by -1:

-ph=\log (H)

Now, we will use the following property of logarithms:

\log _aB=c\rightarrow B=a^c

Applying the property and having into account that:

\log (H)=\log _{10}(H)

We get:

10^{-pH}=H

Now we substitute the given value of "pH = 4.5":

10^{-4.5}=H

Solving the operation:

0.000032=H

Therefore, the hydrogen ion concentration of the fluid is 0.000032
